i'm a 28 year old lab tech who works evenings thus creating unusual eating habits. i eat boring healthy things during the week and (try to ) unleash my creative cooking skills on the weekends. i admit that some nights during the one am or even 2am hr i am drawn to make fantastical food creations which only sometimes taste as good as they sound.
i admit, i am a foodie and really do enjoy talking food with people. i hope to one day take real cooking classes and learn how to chop and dice properly.
my passion is food but my skill/knowledge level is that of a youngester. Zaar has really opened my eyes to just how many ways there are to make one simple food and that there is a large world outside my betty crocker cookbook
